The story

The palm for cooler gardens.

Arching, blue-green fronds on a thick, stubby trunk, and hardy to about 15°F once established. It grows slowly into a broad, tropical-looking specimen. The orange fruit is edible and makes a good jelly, hence its other name, jelly palm.

Light

Full sun is best; light shade is fine.

Water

Weekly the first year. Established palms are drought tolerant.

Planting

Spring or early summer, at the same depth as the pot. Never bury the trunk.

A real palm look in places where most palms would die the first winter.
